CEO
of AFRIFF, Chioma Ude, has revealed the reason Nigerian movies are yet
to get much recognition from global film awards and festivals.
She revealed this while speaking as a panelist at the Nigerian
Entertainment Conference alongside Wunmi Obe, Femi Falodun and Theo
Lawson.
According to her, the major reason is because most of the movies do
not have as much local language content as required to enter the Foreign
Film categories at most of the world’s biggest award shows.
“We need to understand what this category is about and the criteria
for entry. Movies in this category are expected to have rich cultural
elements which must reflect in the language, story, music and all other
elements present in the film. Although, things are getting better now,
as Nollywood got an invitation from the Oscars last year, and hopefully
will get a slot soon. The right film must have at least 51% local
language content to be accepted into the Foreign Language Film
category.’
Speaking for the music industry, recording artiste, Wunmi Obe,
explained that the same reason was why only the likes of Sunny Ade, Femi
Kuti, Angelique Kidjo are the ones who usually get nominated for the
Grammys.
“These people are very African in their sounds and lyrics, and that is what is required for that category.” she said.

My name is Emmanuel Senayon. I thank God for his
divine grace in my life who gave me the golden
grace to see this revelation. The Lord promised me
in my first encounter, to visit me again, to show me
the mystery because his coming is very near and
Satan is working so hard to win souls for his ugly kingdom.
It all happened on the 26th of January 2013
around 6am in the morning when I slept and I
didn't know that my body was already dead here
on earth. I saw the Lord, he said, "COME! I WANT TO
SHOW YOU THE PLAN OF THE DEVIL AGAINST MAN." The Lord took my hand and we arrived before the
throne of
